Dashboard Clusters

How do I tell what the Dashboard.AddCluster effects?
I see the examples using things like Dashboard.SetFloat() etc. in the AddCluster, but I don't know how to tell what elements on the driver station dashboard they effect.

PS: We are trying to create a custom dashboard using the labview dashboard creator, and controlling it using c++ on the robot.

Re: Dashboard Clusters

I believe you are using the older API for constructing a binary type to send to the robot. This still works, but a much simpler mechanism is in place now called SmartDashboard. You may want to try using it instead.

If you want to forge ahead, I'd look for a tutorial on the API because you have to use the Add... methods carefully to construct the binary type that LV uses.
